Couldn’t figure this out help please

(B)

Step-by-step explanation:

Rewrite the equations into their standard forms. The first one can be rewritten as

and the 2nd can be rewritten as

Solving this system either by substitution or elimination, we get

If you add x + y, you'll get a negative number.

9514 1404 393

  B. x + y < 0

Step-by-step explanation:

The two equations can be cleared of fractions by multiplying by 15.

  15(2/3(x +1) -4/5y) = 15(1/3)

  10(x +1) -12y = 5

  10x -12y = -5

and

  15(2/5x +1/3(2y +1)) = 15(1/5)

  6x +5(2y +1) = 3

  6x +10y = -2

  3x +5y = -1 . . . . . eliminate common factor of 2

You can find the solutions any way you like, but you can answer the question without doing that. The lines are not parallel, nor coincident, so there is exactly one solution. (choices C and D are incorrect)

If we can locate the solution relative to the line x + y = 0, we can tell if choice A or choice B is correct. A quick look at the intercepts of the equations tells us the solution cannot lie in quadrants 1 or 4. The negative y-intercept and shallow slope (-3/5) of the second equation tells us the solution must lie below the line x + y = 0. That means x+y < 0, choice B.

In the attached graph, the line x+y=0 is dashed orange. Above that line, x+y>0; below that line, x+y<0. We see the intersection point of the red and blue lines is in the region where x+y < 0.

For standard form equation ax+by = c, the x- and y-intercepts are c/a and c/b, respectively, so are easy to find from that form. Knowing these makes it easy to make a sketch of the graph, locating the solution point relative to the line x+y = 0.

make sure you have version 2.50

try looking in the very back of the book : )

step-by-step explanation: the answer is 27. first multiply .32 by 25 which equals 8. then add 8 to 25 which gives you 33. then you subtract that from 6 since she gave 6 to her brother.
